Basalts are the most abundant extrusive igneous rocks which have erupted on earth throughout its history. Analyses of volcanic glass from chilled margins of pillow basalts and dike intrusions and abundant hyaloclastite glass shards show the same picture, again with all glasses being alkalic in nature and plotting in the basalt, trachybasalt, and basanite index fields (Nichols et al., 2014).

The gabbro-diorite unit occurs along the south and east coast of the island as a sheet-like body, hundreds of meters to more than 1 km thick, that dips beneath the central granitic units and rests on heterogeneous granitic rocks that form the base of the intrusion and are exposed on islands to the southeast. As it sits on ocean floor, a thin sediment drape forms. Scientists agree that pillow basalt “formed on the ocean floor”. Spaces between pillows are not common. Dikes are small (<20 m wide) shallow intrusions that show a discordant relationship to the rocks in which they intrude.
